8yr-old girl molested, forced to perform oral sex

8yr-old girl molested, forced to perform oral sex?

KUALA LUMPUR: An unemployed man pleaded not guilty to molesting an eight-year-old girl and forcing her to perform oral sex on him.
Jamil Samad, 42, is alleged to have used criminal force on the Year Two pupil and rubbing his private parts against her buttocks.
If convicted, he can be jailed up to 10 years, fined or whipped or face any two of such punishments under Section 354 of the Penal Code.
He is also accused of putting his private parts into the girl’s mouth against her will.
If found guilty, he can be jailed up to 20 years and whipped under Section 377C of the Penal Code.
Jamil is said to have committed both offences at the staircase area at PPR Cochrane Perkasa in Jalan Nakhoda Yusuf, Cheras at 4.30pm on May 12 last year.
The girl’s 41-year-old mother had lodged a complaint over the incident later.
Upon hearing his charges Monday, Jamil, clad in striking red-checkered shirt and blue jeans, calmly said he wanted to claim trial.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Nurfaida Mohd Rashidee said the prosecution has no intention to offer bail to the accused.
“If the court intends to use its discretion, the prosecution offers bail of RM15,000 in one surety,” she applied Monday.
DPP Nurfaida said the prosecution also pressed for the court to impose an additional bail condition that the accused should not disturb their witnesses as they were staying near the same area.
Upon queried by Sessions Court judge Mohamad Sekeri Mamat, Jamil said he had nothing to say over his bail application.
The judge then allowed a bail of RM15,000 in one surety and ordered him not to disturb the victim.
“If there is any complaint that you have disturbed the victim, then your bail will be revoked,” warned the judge.
He set April 5 for mention to allow the accused to appoint a lawyer.
